Good good... maybe the hackers, after investigating the code, will come up with a patch that actually fixes some of the gameplay flaws.

They will be surprised when they find out that the code is the same as it was in FIFA 16

At this point, imho anything bad happening to EA is good in my book. They've been getting away with ruining the game for too long now.

The source code wasn't really anything of great value (that's relative I know). The data was mostly AI code from the Frostbite engine, which is very generic and meant to be extended by specific games. The FIFA 21 specific code dealt with match making and some other networking items.

EA is a corporation, bud, and a ****ty one at that. Different than an individual having their info stolen.
